Era

This dimension groups learning theories by the era in which they were developed. Wikipedia notes that techniques such as "event-related potential and functional magnetic resonance imaging" have only recently become part of "educational neuroscience," a reminder that learning theories themselves belong to distinct eras of research. Browsing by era lets a visitor compare theories developed in the same period.
